Daycare for Small Breed Dogs

Doggy Daycare

Exclusive to small breed dogs

Our facility is a safe and fun environment offering small dogs plenty of opportunity for play and socializing.

We are centrally located in Uptown Waterloo next the The Bauer Lofts near Union Street.

Our cozy environment is tastefully decorated with flair and fun. A big window provides natural light and plenty of admirers.

Scheduled walks, treats,movie time on a big screen TV, are all included.

Dogs are highly social animals. Dog Daycare is an invaluable service for our beloved canines and their owners. Many of us just don’t have time to exercise and socialize our dogs. Yet our dogs need to spend time romping and socializing with a "pack".

We recommend your dog attend daycare at least once a week. This insures that your fur kid has enough regular contact with the other dogs to adjust with the pack, and to understand and appreciate our routines.

Dogs benefit from routine and actually prefer it. When they know who’s coming and what to expect, they are more relaxed and less prone to stress.

Benefits

New Puppy?

Daycare allows puppies to learn social skills with other dogs and humans at an early age which can avoid undesirable and challenging behaviors in later years. At daycare your dog will learn routines that will aid in house breaking. We offer outdoor potty breaks every 2-3 hours.

Busy Life?

Long periods of time left alone can lead to destructive behavior such as boredom and separation anxiety, resulting in bad habits like excessive barking, chewing and indoor accidents. Daycare can give pet parents peace of mind knowing their fur kid is getting the mental and physical stimulation they need.

Over Weight?

Daycare can be a great source of exercise for dogs living in busy households or during winter months when many of us are less inclined to spend time outdoors. Pets that are overweight are susceptible to health issues such as diabetes and joint issues.

Social Disorders?

Is your pet afraid of strangers, other dogs or loud noises? Daycare can offer a variety of experiences in a positive and supervised environment that will enable your dog to overcome fears.
